You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm pretty sure my salt and pepper shakers came from a room service tray nearly 20 years ago. They're tiny. I like them.

In high school we were all about re-locating yard art. It was funny, but I do feel a little bad about taking some of the homemade stuff. I don't feel as bad about taking my HS locker number (the number was my graduating year) or the engraved "property of" tag from a coat rack at a summer job (which happens to be a particularly hated federal dept). It seemed like such a silly thing to put that tag on.

I feel like I spent the day herding petulant cats. Then I came home and watched There Will Be Blood. What the hell was that?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Not fun, but hey, at least you're in good company. May you have a clean bill of health.

My twin sister had one last week and they removed three pre-cancerous polyps. That and Mom's inoperable diagnosis pretty much made my decision to have one right away.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

-t, that is an adorable haircut! I wish mine would do that, but it's too inclined to go horizontal. I need a lot of layers.

Which reminds me, I should see if my stylist is recovered from her broken leg yet. The substitute didn't do as good a job on the cut or the color as my regular person.

Burrell, I hope this new treatment helps, and that it's not too rough for your sister (or you).

Double feh. I think it's hilarious that my twin (whose son is just 14 months) will often apologize to me for thinking I was crazy when my kids were toddlers. I just laugh maniacally. Which she totally deserves.

In that case I'm vibing extra hard for you, Cash.

(er, that was in response to the pre-cancerous polyps, which isn't fun to hear.)

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Burrell, hope it is the write poison. Cashmere: hope all goes well for your twin sister and that they find nothing when they examine you.

My friend C just had one and her advice is a) be sure to chill the gunk you have to drink, b) a straw helps it go down and c) make sure you're not on your period at the same time.

Burrell, I'm so sorry your sister is going through this. Cope ma for all of you, and I really hope the new plan kicks the cancer in the ass.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Cash, I'm wishing you a successful procedure.
